Creating a Breezeway

QUESTION

I need to create a breezeway in my design with columns and a roof. How can I do this in Chief Architect?

ANSWER

In this article, we will be designing a simple breezeway that runs from our house to our swimming pool area. The breezeway will be an open breezeway, with a roof and some exposed trusses. We will also be using columns to support the roof under the trusses.

To design the breezeway

As with any other type of structure in Chief Architect, we will first need to define the room definition of our breezeway, so that the program will know to generate a roof over it, and that we will have control over the floor height.
